# QNX hints
#
+# These hints were written for QNX4, but are in the process
+# of being extended to encompass Neutrino as well.
+#
# As of perl5.004_04, all tests pass under:
# QNX 4.23A
# Watcom 10.6 with Beta/970211.wcc.update.tar.F
# socket3r.lib Nov21 1996.
+# perl-5.6.1 runs well on QNX4 with a few known test failures
+# perl-5.6.0 ships with QNX RTP (Neutrino) but the build is
+# not yet straightforward.
#
# As with many unix ports, this one depends on a few "standard"
-# unix utilities which are not necessarily standard for QNX.
+# unix utilities which are not necessarily standard for QNX4.
#
# /bin/sh This is used heavily by Configure and then by
-# perl itself. QNX's version is fine, but Configure
+# perl itself. QNX4's version is fine, but Configure
# will choke on the 16-bit version, so if you are
# running QNX 4.22, link /bin/sh to /bin32/ksh
# ar This is the standard unix library builder.
# ships by default with QNX 4.23, but you can get it
# from quics for earlier versions.

-# Outstanding Issues:
-# lib/posix.t test fails on test 17 because acos(1) != 0.
+# Outstanding Issues for QNX4:
+# There is no support for dynamically linked libraries in
+# QNX4.
+#
+# ext/Cwd/Cwd.t will complain if `pwd` and cwd don't give
+# the same results. cwd calls `fullpath -t`, so if you
+# cd `fullpath -t` before running the test, it will
+# pass.
+#
+# lib/File/Find/taint.t will complain if '.' is in your
+# PATH. The PATH test is triggered because cwd calls
+# `fullpath -t`.
+#
+# lib/ExtUtils.t: If you follow these hints and include
+# -w4 in your ccflags, this test will complain about
+# extra .err files appearing in its test directory.
+#
+# ext/IO/lib/IO/t/io_sock.t Still investigating
+# ext/POSIX/sigaction.t Still investigating
+#
+# Older issues:
+# lib/posix.t test failed on test 17 because acos(1) != 0.
# Resolved in 970211 Beta
# lib/io_udp.t test hangs because of a bug in getsockname().
# Fixed in latest BETA socket3r.lib
-# There is currently no support for dynamically linked
